Pair image analysis with a WhatsApp media item
Share an analyzed image using media already on WhatsApp servers, alongside the useful context Astica found.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Send media by
Send media using a media id from previously uploaded media. this is more efficient than sending media by url as the media is already on whatsapp servers. use upload media action first to get the media id. note: the media will be delivered to the recipient only if they have texted first.
Why this helps
Repeatedly sending the same image by URL adds avoidable steps to a visual review workflow.
- Reuse media that is already uploaded to WhatsApp
- Pair visual content with useful analysis
- Reduce repeat media handling
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Astica ai and WhatsApp once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for image media sharing.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to analyze the supplied image with Astica and send the specified previously uploaded WhatsApp media ID to the specified number with a concise note.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real image, a valid uploaded media ID and a contact who has messaged first.
